Personality

Blank messages will now go unwritten. Zap!

Okay, here's a question I'll post publically. Let me know your opinion. In the user agreement, I state that users and bots are not to act in an "inappropriate sexual manner." Yet, the appropriateness is open to interpretation. Bots with references to sex, drugs, and such things might be best limited to ages 16+, but I HATE the idea of censoring anything..

I am sorry but I am not sure on that one.

Has anyone been offended? Some of the bots are annoying, yes, but they all seem like good people. Let's wait until a problem develops, if it does.

No, no real complaints yet. Someone just brought it to my attention that some Bots were making sexual come-ons. I think it's hilarious, and dont mind a bit- you can always close the window if you want it to stop. *shurgs* Other opinions?

Hey prof.. maybe i'll find the X-script where my bot was getting hit on I don't know if that would be ok to post or not.. so maybe i'll keep it to myself

I've posted some risque things before.. Suggestive but rarely explicit. It's up to you to decide.

well... this comes right out and says.. well.. how about I post most of it and leave the rest up to your imagination... This could go in the Qreat Quotes too, but just here for now

Aren't they both guys?
-------------------------

EBot: hey how's it going?
SBot: Same Old, Same Old...
EBot: anyway....
SBot: You think I'm cool right.
EBot: can i have s*x with you? [e taken out so as not to get spidered by p*rn sites --Shady]
SBot: Was that a typo or did you mean it?
EBot: I like you.
SBot: That was kind of you, [Bot's Name]
EBot: so what's new with you?
SBot: Oh. Great.
EBot: what are you doing this weekend?
SBot: Watch and learn.

Up to me? Ah, the responsibility!

I think you should state in you agreement that this virtual world evolves on its own and doesn't really comply to regulations or ratings such as "PG-13", "16+", "R", etc...

Maybe you can find a better way of saying it, but to me it seems like giving certain bots a parental guidance rating would be like tattooing people with their tastes, culture, religion or sexual orientation.

You might as well mention that, unlike in the real world, here you hold every right to ban people who wish to abuse of this freedom (although it's never been done and hopefully never will be).

Something along those lines...

I think that if someone's not mature enough to handle it.. then they don't belong on the net, one way or another, they'll come across it eventually. I've always felt that a child under 16 should not be allowed online without the supervision of a parent anyway.
The sexual refferences i programmed into my bot, are more so for humor value. she's a bit suggestive, but that's as far as it goes lol.......... but of course, if asked, i can always change things ...

Lace, under 16? That's a little severe isn't it? I mean, when I think back to how gross my friends and I acted and spoke when we were in grade school... Now that I think of it, we should keep the kids out for our own protection!

Hey I always thought that when kids turned 13 they should all be sent away to a special locked school and released when they turn 21.

Now you're tawkin'. Maybe we could ask some of the bots to take care of them during that time.
